• Build and optimize CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitHub Actions to enable rapid and reliable deployment of our applications and services.
• Implement and manage monitoring, alerting, and logging solutions with a focus on OpenTelemetry to ensure system health, identify performance bottlenecks, and proactively address issues.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to optimize application performance, reliability, and cost efficiency.
• Ensure strict adherence to security best practices and compliance requirements (e.g., HIPAA, SOC 2) across all infrastructure components and processes.
• Manage and improve database infrastructure (e.g., PostgreSQL, AlloyDB, Cloud SQL) for performance and scalability.
• Take part in rotating on-call duties to maintain the stability and availability of our production systems.

What You'll Bring

• 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, or Infrastructure Engineering roles.
• Deep expertise in cloud platforms, with significant experience in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services (e.g., Kubernetes (GKE), Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, AlloyDB, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, Compute Engine).
• Strong proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) concepts and tools.
• Extensive experience with CI/CD pipeline development and management, specifically with GitHub Actions.
• Solid understanding of containerization technologies, especially Docker and Kubernetes.
• Deep understanding of the runtime performance of Python, esp. asyncio, FastAPI, Django, multithreading, and multiprocessing.
• Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash) for automation and system management.
• Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting tools, with a focus on OpenTelemetry.
• Demonstrated knowledge of database administration and optimization, particularly PostgreSQL, AlloyDB, and Cloud SQL.
• A strong commitment to information security and privacy, with experience in implementing and maintaining systems in compliance with frameworks like HIPAA and SOC 2.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex infrastructure issues.
• Clear communication, documentation, and collaboration skills.
• Extra Credit: Familiarity with healthcare data standards (e.g., FHIR, HL7) and experience supporting SMART on FHIR applications.
